Welcome!
​On behalf of the Board of Directors and our entire membership I'd like to welcome you to the Ottawa Valley Bluegrass Music Association website! Visit and check out the many activities and happenings with our club.

Bluegrass music in Ottawa has had a long and rich history dating back five decades. But as important as the history has been, so is the future. Our club offers an opportunity to share music and friendship with the many others that enjoy the music. So whether you are a listener, a picker, a concert goer or simply a friend to the music, we welcome you and hope that we can accommodate you in all that our Association offers. We encourage communication and input,  if for no other reason to simply shout out and say hello - we would love to hear from you, and hope to see you at concert or a jam soon.
Dan Buch,  ​President, Ottawa Valley Bluegrass Music Association

OH WHAT A WEEKEND!
The South Grenville Bluegrass Festival Was A Hit!

Congratulations to the entire crew who once again put on a fabulous festival.  Rumour has it that 2025 will see a few more well established full time bands from "south of the boarder".  Stay tuned, tickets may go on sale early...
Just a few photos from the festival...  feel free to send me a couple more of your favourite shots to post here. ​[email protected]
